Some observations: - the initialdata file was fixed upstream in 3.6.2, so the root problem is fixed in unstable http://rt3.fsck.com/Ticket/Display.html?id=7854 - the bug shows up when $RT::WebPath is changed after the database has been initialized. At initialization time, the variable is interpolated correctly. - the suggested 'rt-setup-database --action insert' is not an optimal fix for existing databases: it will duplicate the database content - the database contents are serialized by Storable, so the upgrade script must be done by using the RT API and not by modifying the database directly. This would probably have been a good idea in any case. I'll look into the upgrade script.
